@inkscape I think they have a piggy bank, filling that up for 2027 will be no mistake.

@inkscape @osuosl you better move in Europe, the current situation is not very safe for these kind of projects.

@arabine @inkscape @osuosl Not everyone can simply move to another country and people staying in the US and doing good stuff there deserve to be supported as well.

@pulsar17 @inkscape @osuosl @fossunited not a long shot 😬 I’ve already come across this (and so did ansh arora) and we’ve shared it with a few folks who might help financially.

@inkscape

To mitigate against threats I suggest setting up on #Autonomi for which I created #dweb: for publishing, updating and viewing websites... forever with no ongoing hosting costs. It uses peer to peer storage that will never lose data and can't be taken offline.
